35K on mine, havent touched it. Never had a seal go either on the forks, although they have been serviced once by a race shop at knockhill circuit ( gone now). Keep saying i will get both done one winter but always forget. Anybody recomend a good ohlins service place in the UK!!.

" ride by wire" Guessing!!

Best advent calendar i have seen

Looks very similar to my cafe sport, could see myself on one, but i couldnt live with the unreliability.

Ahem

August 76 bike magazine has the road test of the le mans and the photo of the girl on the bike, there was also road tests of "the fiery 400s". Bought a copy on ebay few years back, probably in my loft now.Funny how men of a certain age remember that photo.

It is the newer version of the OEM one, marked ducati, slightly bigger and thicker, had to make brackets to get it on. Have earthed it to the frame as well.

Just bought a new regulator rectifier unit, before i connect it to the harness i would like to clean up the connections in the plug/ socket as they are looking decidedly iffy, is there a way to get the metal connectors out of the plastic casing so i can clean them up. Failing that does anyone know the plugs i need. Gary

What about one with the duff beer logo on it

Nice bike, wish mine was that clean.

Get the bike level and drain the excess oil. The oil level should be to the bottom of the centre plug.

I use .15mm inlet and .20mm exhaust. There is a excellent "how to" in the FAQ section.

Well i have the shoei neotec as well, good helmet, mine came with the ratchet/seat belt mechanism which is great for putting the helmet on/off. No D rings though !!! Maybe a US/Euro thing.

Dates are good for me, Harry as well. Ireland in august, hothothot.

Oh well, maybe see him on the road during the summer ( when it arrives).

I have to ask why you are changing up to 3rd gear in slow moving traffic??? . is the shifting ok when you are out on a fast run? These bikes like to be revved and will not be happy in a highish gear with low revs as you are effectively lugging/ labouring the engine. But it may be the linkages on the gear lever need taken off and lubricated or the bike may need a tune up, valves/throttle bodies etc to smooth things out. Gary

Congratulations, glad its sold. Has he got a ticket for the scottish rally yet!!!!!

Well it,s out. Never took the chance with the oven. A right bug:er of a job. Just have to wait for the new bearing to arrive. Hopefully thats it for another few years.

Well it looks like i will have to do this job, removed the swingarm (easier than i thought) and the bearing on the drive side is knackered. Dont think my swingarm will fit in our oven (will check when wife is out). Any other tips for getting them out!!!

anyone know of a colour match for the pork chops on a cafe sport ( brownish). Some numpty managed to badly scratch them when doing basic maintenance

Keep the reports coming, looking good.

Cheers Docc
